Indiana football star wide receiver Elijah Sarratt and starting offensive lineman Drew Evans are expected to miss Indiana’s Saturday afternoon clash with Wisconsin.

Sarratt, who is set to miss a second consecutive game with a hamstring injury, exited early in Indiana’s road win over Maryland two weeks ago. He was labeled as a ‘game-time decision’ a weekend ago against Penn State.

Sarratt is officially listed as questionable on the availability report, but is not expected to return to play this week. With the Hoosiers on a bye week following this weekend’s bout with the Badgers, a source confirms with TheHoosier.com that Sarratt is expected back for Indiana’s regular season finale against Purdue in two weeks time.

Evans, Indiana’s starting left guard, will remain on the sideline as well this weekend as the Hoosiers take on the Badgers. It will be the third consecutive game that Evans has missed.

Kickoff specialist Brendan Franke remains sideline as well after suffering an injury on the opening kickoff of Indiana’s win over UCLA.

Also listed on Indiana’s availability report ahead of Saturday’s road contest was safety Bryson Bonds and running back Lee Beebe. Bonds, who suffered a knee injury in the Week 1 win over the Monarchs, and Beebe, who suffered a “non-contact knee injury” earlier in the season against Indiana State, will both miss the rest of the season due to their respective injures.

There were no other Hoosiers listed on this week’s availability report.
